According to a local teacher，Rachel Pearce，the extremely beautiful nightscape combined with the mysterious appearance of stars reflected on the salt lake gives people the impression of walking among the stars. Besides，the town is so far away that no light pollution ruins the particularly attractive views，and as it is situated in a barren（寸草不生的），dry part of the country，there are rarely any clouds to spoil the night sky.The attraction's growing sought-after status has resulted in the town's motel rooms being full almost every night，and while local famers are suffering in a two-year drought，tourism is keeping the town's agricultural-based economy stable.Despite the popularity of the town and its attraction，locals are still confused as to why their little town deserves so much attention. Sea Lake's population has fallen from around 1，200a decade ago to 600 today. “We're still unsure why Lake Tyrrel is such a big，big tourist attraction，”one local says. “It's quite a shock. ”24. Which of the following best explains "influx" underlined in paragraph 2？（）A. Assistance.B. Adventure.C. Arrival.D. Advertisement.25. Which of the following together make Lake Tyrrel pretty impressive？（）A. Population，stars，clouds，cleanness and weather.B. Nightscape，stars，salt，remoteness and clear sky.C. Population，darkness，salt，remoteness and clear sky.D. Nightscape，darkness，clouds，cleanness and weather.26. Which column of a magazine is this text most likely from？（）A. Business.B. Education.C. Lifestyle.D. Culture.CJust ask any new parent: Adding a baby to a household can also add stress to a career. Now，a new study backs that up with some astonishing numbers: After science，technology，engineering，and mathematics（STEM）professionals become parents，43%of women and 23% of men switch fields，transition（转变）to part-time work，or leave the workforce entirely.Many researchers and parents already knew that STEM can be unwelcoming to parents，particularly mothers. But“the considerable departure was astonishing，”says Erin Cech，an assistant professor of sociology at theUniversity of Michigan in Ann Arbor and lead author of the study，published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. For both genders，“the proportions were higher than we expected. ”The surprisingly high reduction rate for men also highlights that“parenthood in STEM is not just amothers'issue；it's a worker issue，”Cech says. She hopes that the findings“might motivate changes，"such as more paid parental leave from both government and employers and policies that better support flexible work time without a tight routine. “We are not suggesting that people who want families should avoid STEM；that's not the solution，”she emphasizes.By 2018，78% of new fathers were still working in STEM，the vast majority full time. For new mothers，68% were still in STEM，but only 57% worked full time. For professionals without children，on the other hand，84% of men and 76% of women were predicted to still be working in STEM full time in 2018. For the new parents across all fields，16% of women were working part-time and 15% had left the workforce，as compared with just 2% and 3%，respectively，for men. These sharp differences make clear that，even though the reduction rate for fathers is higher than expected，mothers still face particular career challenges.27. What makes many STEM employees change their jobs? （）A. Worrying about their family.B. The attraction of part-time jobs.C. Being tired of the former jobs.D. The heavy burden at home and work.28. Which statement may Erin Cech agree with? （）A. Working at home may be a popular choice.B. Increasing welfare may keep STEM parents.C. People with families should leave STEM.D. STEM professionals should obey the rules.29. How many new mothers among the labor force worked full time in 2018? （）A. 69%.B. 76%C. 57%.D. 31%.30. What does the author want to stress by listing the sharp differences? （）A. Too many fathers leave STEM.B. It's hard for mothers to make a balance.C. STEM jobs are no longer popular.D. It's impossible to have a successful career.DThe Notre Dame fire has been put out, but its spire and a large portion of its wooden roof have been damaged. The terrible destruction causes a sudden sharp pain to people around the world. On Chinese social media network Wechat a common comment on the disaster is: "What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonderanymore. "But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely via a video game called Assassin's Creed: Unity. In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire. Further, with virtual reality technology, which is already quite mature, one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there. Maybe digital technology could help to better protect architectural cultural heritage.The idea of digitizing ancient buildings, making digital models of them so their data can be saved，dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then. By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers，building 3D models with multiple images，as well as measuring everything precisely，engineers can make a copy as accurate as the real one.As computers and smartphones are hugely popular，the digital replica（复制品）has great use value. First，it allows tourists to feel the cultural relics without touching them，which helps protect them. The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore，it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000，a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo，which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting the site in the following years. Above all，it preserves all the information of the cultural relics. Even if the original ones are damaged one day，people can still know what they were like and can build a replica if desired.Of course，however precise a model is，it is not the original. Time is the biggest threat to a country's architectural heritage，which will always become ruins with the passing of time. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future，but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment.31. What can we see about Notre Dame in the game？（）A. The damaged parts.B. Its wooden shape.C. Its original look.D. The big fire.32. What will engineers do to create a digital replica of the ancient buildings？（）A. Improve the technology needed.B. Scan the photos of the buildingsC. Build 3D models of full size.D. Measure all the parts exactly.33. What value does a digital replica have？（）A. It keeps the relics safe.B. It helps to guard the relics.C. It gathers data of the relics.D. It advertises the history of the relics.34. How does the author prove the digital copy has vital practical importance？（）A. By comparison.B. By giving examples.C. By classificationD. By listing data.35. What is the authors attitude towards the application of digital technology？（）A. Doubtful.B. Delighted.C. Supportive.D. Conservative.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
